What is the context? Unable to say whether I agree or disagree! An idea always benefits from being exposed. It usually makes it better. Overly generic comment to contrast, as timing can be of the essence too.

Thanks. Then I kind of disagree :-) or at least many counter examples. An idea is really nothing, like the 1% next to 99% perspiration associated to Edison. A stolen idea is also nothing—Dali’s motto that great artists steal, cited by Jobs.

My claim is based on personal experience, plus, a research I read about a while back. I'm not saying ideas should not be discussed in eternity. If you have a great idea for a product or a project, you'd be better of not to announce it to the masses, until it's matured.

Qualified as such, yes. That was the reason behind my first question: The context. Likely too early to talk to an investor or client. In general never too early to talk.

It's the founders channel so I guess I thought that was obvious :)
